i dislike how stupid they start make ash ketchup these episode. The fact he told new trainer not panic around they Pokemon. Plus they use useless Pokemon to get sick. Pachirisu has no reason be use except he cute to some people so he useless.

I liked this episode. It was funny and it showd that Brock is still heavily important to the team. Not to mention a lot of the Ash and Dawn interaction was cute.

Well let me tell ya something brotha'! The Buizelster doesn't stay down while all the little Buizelmaniacs believe! So what 'cha gonna do now brotha'? What 'cha gonna do when Buizelmania runs wild on youuuuuuuuu!

It doesn't get much dumber

You know that a plot has been recycled when they mention the recycling within the episode. I guess that even so, they thought that the plot was old enough that they could get away with it. However, clearly this hasn't gone over well among the fans around here. Oops, writers.

There are also times when you remember that half of the show's target audience is six-year-olds. When that happens you just have to turn away and let the characters have heart attacks over a fever. Which brings me to another point: the gang has been traveling around for this long, and Takeshi is still the only one who knows first aid? I'd think that would be the first thing you learn when you start your journey, but apparently I'm wrong.

Gliscor...he's one controversial little critter at this point, so I won't share my opinions on him. I will say that whatever character development he started getting has gone well out the window now. The poor guy is more of a running gag than anything else, and while his puppy-dog eyes do amuse, there's not much purpose to him.

When the characters weren't fussing over a mildly ill squirrel, they were running around being cutesy-wutsey and having a wonderful time, which is fine, but when it's exactly the same IN EVERY OTHER EPISODE...it gets tiring. That and the forced moral about arguing made this a real stick-your-fingers-down-your-throat episode. Hopefully we won't have to sit through this next week.

Reason: Talking about Gliscor

It looked decent. It was cool when Zapdos appeared. And poor Gliscor, left behind at the end. The 4kids credits thing was probably a mistake, they'll change it when the episode re-airs dosen't anyone agree?

I feel bad for poor Gliscor. He's treated as if he's Ash's most useless pokemon. Gliscor needs more time to shine.

But I thought it was still a cute and funny episode. I really enjoy episodes like these.

What's with all these "eat right and stay healthy kiddies!" messages their throwing into all the recent dubbed episodes?

But zomg, Brock actually shows that he isn't just woman crazy for once, and actually knows where Oran Berries grow! ... D:
Really though, you think after all this time traveling with Brock, Ash would know some first-aid...

I will admit though, I lol'd at the Gliscor ending.

But Brock has always shown that he's not just woman crazy.

Because childhood obesity is a problem in many developed countries like the US, Australia and the UK.

“Heroes take journeys, confront dragons, and discover the treasure of their true selves.”

Well, they've shown that Ash knows a bit about dealing with injuries; dealing with illness isn't the same thing. Since their Pokemon are generally healthy, Ash and Dawn haven't thought about it.

And we’ll drive on even if we get there last
Our backs against the wall and we will lunge and bite
And we’ll rage, rage, rage against the dying of the lightHere And Now by Great Big Sea

the feel of them making food, like using a mandolin to finely grate some oran berries, wasnt for me. The episode in itself was just lame, it was like they were DESPERATE for a filler.
There were so many things that made it bad, i couldnt believe it :P

A different episode indeed but still good anyway. I like the appearance of Zapdos giving a possible Platinum hint and the ending with Gliscor having to hop back to the cabin was kind of funny but still different.

I felt so bad for Pachirisu watching this episode. Interesting that it wasn't too obvious that it was an electricity buildup making it sick, unlike the times Pikachu was sick with the same thing (I think in retrospect his "cold" in "Sparks Fly for Magnemite" in season one was the same thing, since he's cured by releasing electricity). And at least it was a star episode with Brock, and would later be important in the "Trials and Adulations" episode of season 12.

Not a bad episode, poor Pachirisu looked quite sick (As someone else mentioned like Pikachu in Sparks fly for Magnemite, except Pikachu had a cold and Pachirisu had a fever didn't it?).

It was interesting to see Dawn and Ash trying to fix it, with the rumors of Brock leaving at the end of Sinnoh this episode makes me wonder what will Ash do if this situation pops up again and he's not near a Nurse Joy or Jenny or a professor like when Pikachu was sick in Hoenn.
